This book is quite different from anything else I've read - there were definitely times where the magic itself and the whole different dimensions thing didn't really make sense/click in my brain... but I just kind of went with it and accepted it. Ha!
I just really enjoyed the exploration of what it means to be a "chosen one", once the Big Bad is defeated and what the effects of that could be. And then the exploration of good versus evil in general - I liked what Veronica Roth did with that. It felt like a fresh take on it for me.
I am VERY curious about how things are going to pan out with the WILD ending... !
